SNMPCONF(1)                                       Net-SNMP                                       SNMPCONF(1)



NAME
       snmpconf - creates and modifies SNMP configuration files

SYNOPSIS
       snmpconf [OPTIONS] [fileToCreate]

       Start with:
              snmpconf -g basic_setup

       Or even just:
              snmpconf

DESCRIPTION
       snmpconf is a simple Perl script that walks you through setting up a configuration file step by step.
       It should be fairly straight forward to use.  Merely run it and answer its questions.

       In its default mode of operation, it prompts the user with menus showing sections of the various con-figuration configuration
       figuration files it knows about.  When the user selects a section, a sub-menu is shown listing of the
       descriptions of the tokens that can be created in that section.  When a description is selected,  the
       user is prompted with questions that construct the configuration line in question.

       Finally,  when  the  user quits the program any configuration files that have been edited by the user
       are saved to the local directory, fully commented.

       A particularly useful option is the -g switch, which walks a user through a specific set of  configu-ration configuration
       ration questions.  Run:

              snmpconf -g basic_setup

       for an example.

OPTIONS
       -f      Force  overwriting existing files in the current directory without prompting the user if this
               is a desired thing to do.

       -i      When finished, install the files into the location where the global system commands expect to
               find them.

       -p      When  finished,  install  the files into the users home directory's .snmp subdirectory (where
               the applications will also search for configuration files).

       -I DIRECTORY
               When finished, install the files into the directory DIRECTORY.

       -a      Don't ask any questions.  Simply read in the various known configuration files and write them
               back  out  again.   This has the effect of "auto-commenting" the configuration files for you.
               See the NEAT TRICKS section below.

       -rall|none
               Read in either all or none of the found configuration files.  Normally snmpconf  prompts  you
               for  which  files you wish to read in.  Reading in these configuration files will merge these
               files with the results of the questions that it asks of you.

       -R FILE,...
               Read in a specific list of configuration files.

       -g GROUPNAME
               Groups of configuration entries can be created that can be used to  walk  a  user  through  a
               series of questions to create an initial configuration file.  There are no menus to navigate,
               just a list of questions.  Run:

                      snmpconf -g basic_setup

               for a good example.

       -G      List all the known groups.

       -c CONFIGDIR
               snmpconf uses a directory of configuration information to learn about the files and questions
               that it should be asking.  This option tells snmpconf to use a different location for config-uring configuring
               uring itself.

       -q      Run slightly more quietly.  Since this is an interactive  program,  I  don't  recommend  this
               option since it only removes information from the output that is designed to help you.

       -d      Turn on lots of debugging output.

       -D      Add even more debugging output in the form of Perl variable dumps.


NEAT TRICKS
       snmpconf -g basic_setup
              Have  I  mentioned  this command enough yet?  It's designed to walk someone through an initial
              setup for the snmpd(8) daemon.  Really, you should try it.

       snmpconf -R /usr/local/snmp/snmpd.conf -a -f snmpd.conf
              Automatically reads in an snmpd.conf file (for example) and adds comments to  them  describing
              what each token does.  Try it.  It's cool.

NOTES
       snmpconf  is  actually  a very generic utility that could be easily configured to help construct just
       about any kind of configuration file.  Its default configuration set of files are SNMP based.
